There is one brain organ that is optimised for understanding and articulating logical processes and that is the outer layer of the brain, called the cerebral cortex. Unlike the rest of the brain, this relatively recent evolutionary development is rather flat, only about 0.32 cm (0.12 in) thick and includes a mere 6 million neurons. This elaborately folded organ provides us with what little competence we do possess for understanding what we do and who we do it.
I'm working on artificial intelligence. Actually, natural language understanding, which is to get computers to understand the meaning of documents.
My mission at Google is to develop natural language understanding with a team and in collaboration with other researchers at Google.
